Earlier this week, President Joe Biden issued an executive order aimed at reducing the influx of illegal immigrants and getting the southern border under some semblance of control. While debate continues surrounding its approach and what it will accomplish, the more pertinent question for us today is how God would have us respond. So what does the Bible say about illegal immigration and how should we think and act on this issue?

A forty-six-year-old man was swimming at a popular California beach last Sunday when he was attacked by a shark. He punched the predator on the nose, then fellow swimmers rescued him. This week we’re exploring ways to respond redemptively to Pride Month and the rising cultural opposition of our day. Today let’s become a bit more militant in fighting our spiritual adversary. What does “resist him, standing firm in your faith” ...

President Biden stated on Friday that Hamas is “no longer capable” of carrying out another large-scale attack on Israel, detailing a three-phase deal that would lead to the release of the remaining hostages and end the nearly eight-month-long war in Gaza. While Israel is engaged in a political and military battle with Hamas that is ideological at its core, the Jewish state does not need to fear losing its own people to the id...

June is “Pride Month,” in which the LGBTQ community celebrates their lifestyles and pursues their four-fold strategy: normalize LGBTQ behavior, legalize it, stigmatize those who oppose their agenda, and criminalize such opposition. There are three reasons evangelicals oppose Pride Month agendas that are defensible, and one reason that is not.

Donald J. Trump has been convicted in his hush-money Manhattan trial. He is the first former American president to be found guilty of a crime. The presiding judge, Justice Juan Merchan, now faces the task of sentencing Mr. Trump. A prison sentence is considered unlikely; penalties could range from a fine to probation. Mr. Trump is also certain to appeal, a process that could take months or years to resolve. As

Charges against professional golfer Scottie Scheffler were dropped yesterday in Louisville. The prosecutor stated, “Mr. Scheffler’s characterization that this was a ‘big misunderstanding’ is corroborated by the evidence.” It seems that in today’s culture, evidence plays a small role in our partisan divide, where opinions are formed based on moral alignment, not unbiased facts. Evangelical Christians are more likely to be canc...

The prosecution and the defense ended their closing arguments late last night in Donald J. Trump’s trial in New York City. A verdict could be reached as soon as today. Our nation is threatened by a poisoning ideology that the solution to America’s unrest is violence and theft against fellow citizens. Today, we remind ourselves of our calling to love another: to love America is to love Americans.

The New York Times recently reported on thousands of suspected disappearances at the hands of Abdul Raziq, an Afgan general during the war on terror who they’ve rightfully dubbed “America’s monster.” While they claim that Raziq was empowered to expedite the war, as Christians, we need to remember that God will never call us to walk down a path he can’t bless. To him, the means matter just as much as the ends.

Two weeks after Harrison Butker delivered the commencement address at Benedictine College, people are still discussing his controversial statements about women. So what is it about Butker’s speech that has caused such a stir? The admonition to find our sense of peace and purpose in God’s call for our lives rather than the expectations of the world—or even ourselves—is something our culture desperately needs to hear.

The rise of the “nones” in the religious demographics of our society has been among the most troubling trends for many Christians across recent decades. However, the nones haven’t really grown in the last five years, and their numbers have actually started to fall among the younger generations. As it becomes clearer who is walking by faith and who has “faith” by works, let us answer our calling to share the gospel with those ...

One person died and more than thirty others were injured after a Singapore Airlines flight hit severe turbulence this morning. Dennis Quaid is starring in a new horror movie in which, according to one reviewer, his costar is in “several scenes featuring full nudity.” Today’s conversation amplifies yesterday’s focus on the urgency of living in the power of the Spirit so fully that the Spirit changes us and changes the culture ...

Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi died in a helicopter crash Sunday in northwestern Iran. On Friday, Scottie Scheffler was arrested for attempting to circumvent a crash site outside his golf tournament. One set off a “fierce scramble of power.” The other demonstrated the power of humility when power is stripped from you. The two stories offer the same reminder in starkly disparate ways: the time to prepare for the inevitable cr...

The Chosen recently surpassed Baywatch as the most widely translated TV show in history. But how did The Chosen go from a crowdsourced dream to one of the most popular programs in the world? And what can its path to reach that point teach us about following God’s calling for our lives?

A statue of Rev. Billy Graham will be unveiled in the US Capitol later today. The likeness depicts Dr. Graham gesturing toward an open Bible in his hand. In life, Billy Graham was emphatic: “We aren’t only called to become Christians; we are called to be Christians.” In today’s culture, that message is needed now more than ever.

Orcas have been sinking yachts in the Strait of Gibraltar, with researchers tracking nearly seven hundred incidents since 2020. When we think we have tamed nature, there are always orcas or viruses around to correct us and remind us that we are just as frail and mortal tody as we were a thousand years ago. Today we consider three facts that can turn our fears and frailty into empowering faith.
